ABSTRACT

This technical report is a detailed write-up comprising of my 4months’ students’ industrial

work experience scheme undertaken at; TotalEnergies Nig Plc, Kogi State. Experiences

gained during the industrial training period were essential for the exposure of practical skills

in the construction industry in Nigeria. As an Engineeing in training, a 2-year program of

study without an industrial work experience would have been incomplete. A personal

assessment of knowledge prior to the commencement of my industrial work and after the four

months showed a vivid difference as a result of being exposed to various aspects in the

architectural profession.
